"I heard that this skill was almost lost?"

When the outside world was in a hustle and bustle, Ni Bingyan took the film crew and quietly came to Huishui County, Guizhou Province, a Buyi village deep in the mountains.

The old man in front of him is surnamed Yang, and it is said that he was one of the only two craftsmen in the world who mastered the art of maple incense dyeing.

"Yes! Sweetgum dyeing takes a long time, the requirements for the craftsman's skills are also very high, and it is not easy to make it, compared to the materials printed and dyed in the factory, it is much more expensive, not to mention, there are fewer patterns, and there are fewer colors, people don't like to buy, we can't make money, young people can't rely on this to support their families, and they would rather go into the factory to play screws than learn this, but it's almost lost~"

In the stilted building of the Yang family, at the door of the hall, the old man sat on a bench, happily facing the camera, and talking to her kindly, without the cramped feeling that the old man in the mountains often has.

Because since maple incense dyeing was designated as an intangible cultural heritage item, this is not the first time he has recorded a show.

Ni Bingyan sat on another bench, turning his head slightly, and he could see the golden camellia downstairs.

】

The air is filled with the strong scent of flowers, and when you look up, you can see the mountains in the distance through the empty space under the eaves.

It's been a warm winter this year.

Just a few days after New Year's Day, the north is still bleak, and your province already has the breath of spring.

Between those two mountains, there are fields of golden rape flowers.

This year, the flowers bloomed early, and these rape flowers have already bloomed one after another, but if you want to reach the peak flowering period, you may have to wait until around the Lantern Festival.

"Nowadays, the industry is developed, manpower is greatly saved, and materials are abundant, in fact, people's lives are getting better and better. In the past, people couldn't wear new clothes all year round, but now they can buy a cotton T-shirt with less than two bowls of noodles, and it won't break for several years. ”

With cheaper, more durable ready-to-wear garments in a variety of styles and colors, who can afford to buy cloth for clothes?

Therefore, it is natural that traditional handicrafts are abandoned by the times.

Why doesn't the old man understand this truth?

But he laughed at himself for his craft, and it embarrassed him when others pointed it out.

Seeing that the old man was a little displeased, Ni Bingyan smiled:

"But now, you've found a new way out, haven't you? The reason why the good things handed down by the ancestors have been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years has its own worthy reason. ”

The old man's face softened, this was scratched to the itch.

"A new way out? Sort it off! It's not wide, but it's better than carrying it into a coffin. ”

"To tell you the truth, before I came, I saw someone on the Internet saying that the maple fragrance dyeing is about to break the inheritance, and after I came, I was a little surprised to find that the local development is actually not bad!"

"Hehe, it's still the reason why the publicity is not in place, and the inheritance is about to be broken, it was all many years ago, haha! I have already taught dozens of apprentices in this training class! Now that this skill is an intangible cultural heritage, protected by the state, and there are people who really like it, I believe that it will not be lost in the future. ”

"Grandpa Yang, in fact, I admire you very much, it must take a lot of determination to teach the family heirloom skills for free."

Old man Yang waved his hand: "Hey~ Don't hold me so high, I'm just poor and think about change, now the reputation of maple incense dyeing has spread, and our products can also be sold, not only my family's life has improved, but people who do this business can also support their families, for us ordinary people!" That's the most important thing. ”

This little old man is so cute, Ni Bingyan couldn't help but chat with him for a long time.

In the end, she wanted to go to the workshop to experience the process of making maple incense dyeing, and the old man even stood up tremblingly and sent them to the gate of the courtyard.

"Now our biggest difficulty is not the problem of continuous inheritance, but to expand the influence, so that more people know about it, like it, and are willing to buy it and use it!"

The old man cherished this opportunity very much, and in the end, he held Ni Bingyan's hand and thanked her a thousand times.

"Good boy, I know that you are very famous, please be sure to publicize it for us, if you can earn money at home, young people don't have to go out to work! Hey, people are getting older, they miss their children the most, and the mountains are one after another, and I don't know which side he is on. ”

In the end, Ni Bingyan walked far away, and when he turned around, he could still see Old Man Yang standing under the golden tea tree and wiping his tears.

Ni Bingyan sighed, his heart a little heavy.

"I admire Sister Guo more and more now, it's really great to be able to integrate traditional things into fashion and give new life to old things."

The mountain road is not easy to walk, Ni Bingyan carried a travel backpack, and while walking, he was looking for someone to chat.

I was really depressed and panicked, and I urgently needed to talk to someone.

"Ahem, you're traveling alone right now, pretend we don't exist."

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Pei Jin trembled.

Ni Bingyan suddenly stood up in anger, his eyes widened, and he looked at him in disbelief:

"Isn't it possible that the camera has long legs? Normal people know that I am a person with a team, right? Yes? Brother Biao, Sister Li, they are silent, you two can't ignore me, right? ”

Good fellow, a one-man trip, at least the four King Kong guards by his side.

I don't know how the audience feels when they see this scene.

Duanmuli was helpless: "According to the rules, we are just tool people, following you, just to prevent accidents, not to interfere with your trip, and not to provide you with unnecessary help." ”

"Hey, I'm in a panic, you have to talk to me!"

"What's there to be afraid of? Everything is getting better, isn't it? ”

The group walked on the thin ridges, lined with rape flowers in early bloom, Pei Jin controlled the drone to take many beautiful pictures, and gave her a close-up.

Not to mention, even if the big beauty wears a jacket that is convenient for hiking, at this station, this mountain becomes graceful.

The group walked through the trail, finally saw the car, bumped for a long time to the county, and went straight to the maple incense dyeing intangible cultural heritage workshop.

"You can experience traditional maple dyeing here, and I also support various DIY, I plan to wait to draw a picture on the white cloth, I don't know how the finished product will be?"

Because she made an appointment in advance, she knew that she was going to shoot the show, and the county thought of the miracle of Wutong County, and it had already been arranged.

not only sent the best-looking craftsman with the most neat mouth to explain to her, but also arranged the production scenes of each link for them to shoot.

The most exaggerated thing is that the county also sent cadres over to meet the needs of the film crew at any time, and I just hope that she can do a good job of promoting here.

In this case, after listening to the craftsman's explanation, Ni Bingyan dipped a brush in sweetgum mixed oil on the spot and painted a landscape painting of a mountain village with rape flowers in full bloom.

"Before in the mountains, I saw a large sea of rape flowers, and I still can't forget it, and there are unique stilted buildings in the village, which have to be painted and brought home as a souvenir."

When this episode is broadcast, many people must come to see the rape flowers and the stilted building.

When the master who taught her heard this, he immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes:

"The construction skills of our stilted buildings here are the first batch to be selected as intangible cultural heritage! Earlier than maple dyeing. You're so skillful, you really draw like it! ”

Ni Bingyan really doesn't know this, after all, there are many intangible cultural heritage skills.
